Big C 01-20-2013, 08:48 PM if true, this is fantastic and unexpected news. #HTTR CRedskinsRule 01-20-2013, 09:36 PM Someone needs to change this title. We are not going to get anything back. agreed if true, this is fantastic and unexpected news. #HTTR like Mechanix said. the thread title is overly optimistic. Ruhskins 01-20-2013, 11:36 PM agreed like Mechanix said. the thread title is overly optimistic. More like delusional IMO. SBXVII 01-21-2013, 11:47 AM That would be fantastic! I can see good players really wanting to come here now and not just for the paycheck. Finally! It would be great to have the cap space to sign them. Last I heard because of last years penalty we are right at or slightly over the CAP this year due to all the player raises that are due. The Skins will have to rework contracts just to get below and then rework or cut for the second 18 mill penalty. If the league drops the second 18 mill maybe we can finagle some contracts to be able to pick up 1 or 2 needed spots. The Goat 01-21-2013, 02:11 PM I will always think the penalty was BS, for both us and the Cowpukes. That side, our FO has already moved on, and achieved an above average off-season (last year) with the penalty. firstdown 01-21-2013, 02:14 PM I say we tell the NFL to kiss our ass and just ignore the penalty. What could they do? FRPLG 01-21-2013, 02:46 PM I say we tell the NFL to kiss our ass and just ignore the penalty. What could they do? Well a lot. Our only options are a) eat it b) argue and convince the owners to relent c) sue A is most likely to end up happening. B is probably what they're trying but almost assuredly won't work. C is the nuclear option that might work but has a ton of downside HailGreen28 01-21-2013, 02:56 PM I say we tell the NFL to kiss our ass and just ignore the penalty. What could they do?I'm guessing they could keep us from signing anybody, drafted or FA. We need the FO's approval (and player's union approval?) to sign contracts. I don't think any player's going to sign with us on otherwise uncertain terms. And risk their own status in the organization when they could sign safe deals with other teams. Lotus 01-21-2013, 03:07 PM Well a lot. Our only options are a) eat it b) argue and convince the owners to relent c) sue A is most likely to end up happening. B is probably what they're trying but almost assuredly won't work. C is the nuclear option that might work but has a ton of downside Yep. Option C bites the hand that feeds and thus is almost unthinkable, as just as it might be. | |
